SAN ANTONIO — On Monday, the State Comptroller's Office released its first public school construction survey, which allows taxpayers to see how much was spent on schools that opened between 2007 and 2013.

The report also adjusted all the construction costs for inflation, and regional variations in material costs, so the schools could be compared side-by-side.

Many San Antonio schools were included in the list, according to data provided by the Texas Comptroller's Office.

At $97,130,504, San Antonio's Judson High School in the Judson Independent School District was one of the most expensive schools on the list — second only to Centennial High School in Burleson, a community just outside of Fort Worth.
